Marco Crespi of Italy is one stroke behind Nixon with Chile's Felipe Aguilar another shot back in third.

Poor weather and then bad light had forced the opening two rounds to be suspended on Thursday and Friday, and the third round only got under way after 45 golfers finished their second round early Saturday morning.

Nixon said, "I had a nice start and it just kept going."
